“…The module is developed to be operated in a mobile device, which requires a specified requirement to optimally utilize the module [14]. For that purpose, a series of test was performed to determine the ability of a software with a certain memory capacity in running all functions of mobile-based application module on the smartphone.…”

Recent advancements in the capabilities of mobile devices have led to an increased interest in leveraging them for learning, especially in the field of engineering education. Mobile learning has become great tool for delivering educational resources in which learners can not only access the module anytime and anywhere but also can actively interact with the learning material. This research aims to design and develop learning material of an automotive engineering course based on mobile device for mechanical engineering education students. The development epublication module of motorcycle mechanic course employed the ADDIE instructional design model encompassing five steps: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The student's learning style was identified to characterize the target audience of the mobile module. It was found that the majority of the students as the user have auditory and kinesthetic, then the module will be designed with the design in accordance with the auditory and kinesthetic learning style, therefore the module will be mainly designed on audio-based format. The learning module is developed using e-publication software consisting of structured PDF documents combined with audio and video files. Some experts in instructional system design and automotive engineering were asked to evaluate the implementation feasibility of the module. The average evaluation score was 85.4%, indicating high acceptance of implementing the learning module. The technical feasibility analysis indicated that the smartphone used for this module requires at least 1024 MB of RAM (Random Access Memory). It implies that e-publication module delivery has the potential to gain wider acceptance in engineering education complementing the in-class and practical learning. Keywords: development; instructional media; ADDIE model; e-publication; mobile learning INTRODUCTIONAdvances in technology have brought changes in the development of instructional design. Utilization of information technology is increasingly used in the learning process. The development of e-learning is increasingly intensive in supporting the learning process, not only for distance learning, but also for classroom learning. With the development of smart phone technology, m-learning-based learning becomes one of the alternatives of instructional design which is quite flexible and efficient. Sun and Cheng [1] showed that the digital learning is considered to be more attractive. This finding is supported by Greener et al [2] which

“…Mobile learning is certainly not merely the conjunction of 'mobile' and 'learning'; it has always implicitly meant 'mobile e-leaning' and its history and development have to be understood as both a continuation of 'conventional' E-learning and reaction to this 'conventional' e-learning and to its perceived inadequancies and limitation [11]. M-learning is a relatively new trend in the development of e-learning with the help ofdevice a mobile so that users have access to the learning materials anywhere, anytime [17].…”

“…Research on mobile learning has been widely carried out, such as mobile technologies in engineering education [11], the mobile learning for education: benefits and Challenges [12], Defining mobile learning in the higher education landscape [13]. Some of these studies only examine the problems of implementing mobile learning in higher education and technical education, no studies have investigated the potential use of mobile learning in vocational secondary school level.…”

This study aimed to reveal and know the potential use of mobile learning on the competency test of computer and network engineering vocational schools. The method used in this research was survey method. The Data was collected from August 2017 until December 2017. The research sites were in three vocational schools, SMK Negeri 8 Jeneponto, South Sulawesi, SMK Telkom Makassar, South Sulawesi, and SMK Negeri 1 Depok Sleman, Yogyakarta. The subjects of this study were class XII Computer and Network Engineering with the number of respondents were 120 students. The instrument used to collect data was a questionnaire enclosed. Data obtained used stratified random sampling technique descriptively and statistically analyzed using SPSS. The survey results showed the aspects of mobile device ownership were 100% of the 120 respondents had mobile device, 0% who did not have a mobile device. The average type of mobile devices owned by students was IPhone at around 41.7%, Oppo 32.5%, Advan 10% and Samsung 5%. While from the aspect of the use of mobile devices from 120 respondents showed that the average student accessed social media whatsapp was about 50.8%, Facebook 28.3%, Instagram 8.3%, Line 7.5% and educational application 4.2%.

“…They were classified into two groups: 82.8% developed applications using ETs. For example Kevan and Ryan [29] used the emerging technology (ET) API to generate applications for learning, Herrera et al, [30] designed mobile applications to improve generic competencies and Navarro et al [31] developed serious games using open-source tools and 17.2% of the studies not only developed the application but also implemented and evaluated it (e.g., [32]). 20 studies were found in models, approaches, methodologies or frameworks.…”

Abstract-This study systematically reviews, classifies and synthesizes the research related to Emerging Technologies (ETs) in the field of formal education between 2006 and 2016, aiming to identify areas of uncertainty for future research. In addition, this study is a tool to guide teachers in their decision making when incorporating technologies in the classroom. The research approach was mixed and it analyzed 288 studies that met the inclusion criteria. Results show that all the studies aimed to improve and to transform the different educational processes through the incorporation of ETs. The most used methodology was qualitative research; the survey was the most widely used instrument; the most affected population was the students in the context of higher education; the competences to improve was critical thinking, followed by problem solving, collaborative work, creative thinking, and decision-making. Emerging Technologies (ETs) are contextual, adaptable, evolving, ubiquitous, disruptive, innovative, complementary and generate a degree of uncertainty, they can be complex, accessible, functional, easy to use, interactive and it found that Web 2.0 technologies are the most used in the studies.
